Sept 1 – How Rich You Are

September 1 – How Rich You Are

I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.  – Hebrews 13:5

My children, that word is unfailingly true.  Down the centuries thousands have proved My constancy, My untiringness, My unfailing Love.  “Never leave.”  “Never forsake.” Not just a Presence is meant by this, but …

My Love will never leave you, My Understanding will never leave you, My Strength will never leave you.  Think of all that I am:

Love – then forever you are sure of Love.

Strength – then forever, in every difficulty and danger, you are sure of strength.

Patience – then always there is One who can never tire.

Understanding – then always you will be understood.

Can you fear the future when it holds so much for you?  Beloved, “set your affections on things above” (the higher, spiritual things), “and not on things on the earth” (the lower, temporal things), and you will see how rich you are.

Hearken unto me, O Jacob and Israel, my called;
 I am he; I am the first, I also am the last. – Isaiah 48:12

August 31 – Heaven’s Music

Lift up your heart.

Lift it up — its love and its longings, leaving fears and faults behind.

Let your heart draw its strength and vitalizing Joy and Confidence from Me, your Lord.

Let no vibration stir your being that is not in harmony with the Eternal Music of My Kingdom.

August 31 – Pray and Deny

August 31 – Pray and Deny

Howbeit this kind goeth not out but by prayer and fasting. — Matthew 17: 21.

You must live a life of communion and prayer if you are to save others.

Take My words as a command to you. “By prayer and fasting.”

Pray and deny yourself, and you will be used marvelously to save and help others.

And when they had brought their ships to land, they forsook all,
and followed him.  Luke 5:11

August 30 – Stand Invincible

Life, earth-life, is a battle. A battle in which man will always be the loser unless he summons Eternal Life-Forces to his aid. Do this and all that has the power to thwart you slinks back defeated.

Say, in the little as well as the big things of life, “Nothing can harm, nothing can make me afraid. In Him I conquer.” Stand invincible, face  the foes of life.

August 30 – Give, Give, Give

M_EA82

August 30 – Give, Give, Give

Give abundantly. Feel that you are rich. Have no mean thought in your heart.

Of Love, of thought, of all you have, give, give, give.

You are followers of the World’s Greatest Giver. Give of time, of personal ease and comfort, of rest, of fame, of healing, of power, of sympathy, of all these and many more.

Learn this lesson, and you will become a great power to help others and to do mighty things.

Give, and it shall be given unto you, good measure, pressed down, 
and shaken together and running over, shall 
men give unto your bosom.  Luke 6:38

August 29 – Divine Extravagance

Let Christ be in you in all wealth of Wisdom.

It is the stingy, miserly attitude of My followers that casts a slur upon My religion.

Dwell upon the Divine extravagance of terms used by those who know something of the wonder of My Kingdom — “The riches,” “The wealth,” “The fullness.” There is no stint with God.

The only limit is set by the inability of My followers to take. Wealth of wisdom and unlimited Power to help others may be yours.

August 29 – Breathe My Name

August 29 – Breathe My Name

Just breathe My Name.

It is like the pressure of a child’s hand that calls forth an answering pressure, strengthens the child’s confidence and banishes fear.

The name of the Lord is a strong tower:
the righteous runneth into it, and is safe.
Proverbs 18:10

August 28 – Thread of Gold

Let My Spirit of Calm enter your being, and direct you, filling you with Peace and Power. Find in each day that thread of gold that runs through all, and that links up all the simple tasks and words and interests and feelings into one whole.

Consciously hand the day back to Me at its close, leaving with Me all that is incomplete. It is Heaven’s work to complete man’s imperfect or unfinished task, when it has been of Heaven’s ordering.

See the Joy of Life, and you by that very act increase it. Joy grows by man’s consciousness of Joy.


August 28 – Continuous Service

M_GO53

August 28 – Continuous Service

Service is the Law of Heaven. My angels do always obey. “They serve Him continually” can be said of all who love Me.

With Love there is continuous service in every action, and also even in rest.

Take this not as the end but as the beginning of a New Life consecrated to My Service.

A Life of Power and Joy.

If any man serve me, let him follow me; and where I am, there
shall also my 
servant be; if any man serve me, him
will my Father honour.      John 12:26

August 27 – One Spirit-led Family

Have no fear. Wonders unfold.

In this Life or in the Larger Life, the lesson is the same — the absorption of My Spirit — living, thinking, and acting in My Spirit until others are forced to see and recognize its Power and claims.

Does this mean loneliness for My Follower? Nay, rather, though you, the human-self-you has no recognition, the real you, transformed by My Spirit, shares in all that fullness of operation and resultant Joy.

You are no isolated being but one of a mighty Spirit-led family, partaker of all the family’s well-being, cooperative in every act of each member, sharer of the blessing of each.

A foretaste this of Heaven’s oneness and fulfillment.
